To all whom it may concern.-

Be it known that I, HUGO NOERDLINGER, 'a subject of the King of Wiirtemberg, and a resident at Stuttgart, lviirtemberg, Germany, have invented new and useful Improvements in Processes for Obtaining Oil and Vinegar Preparations for Industrial, Medicamental,

patents in Germany, dated June 5, 1889, No. 52,448; in France, dated June 8, 1889, No. 198,833; in Great Britain, dated June 8, 1889,

86,660; in Luxernburg,dated June 18, 1889, No. 1,147; in Italy, dated June 30, 1889, Vols. XXIII and LIV, Nos. 25,660 and 130; in Spain, dated August 20, 1889, No. 9,695; in Norway, dated October 28, 1889,1610. 1,381; in Austria- Hungary, dated April 18, 1890, No. 53,271 and No. 11,233, an d in Sweden, dated May 29,1890,

No. 2,376,) of which the following is a spccification.

This invention relates to the manufacture of a clear permanent homogeneous mixture consisting of vinegar and fatty oilsuch as cotton-oil, &c.'which is applicable for-various manufacturing and other purposes-such as,

. for instance, for mordanting for medical purposes. It offers, in addition, the special advantage that the oil becomes purified by the addition of the vinegar and preserved from deterioration, while, on the other hand, the vinegar is freed from Water, so that a pcrma- 4 nent homogeneous mixture of vinegar and oil and the water of the vinegar in suspension. This is now mixed with abody soluble in water, for which a suitable saltsuch as common saltis used, and after stirring together the mixture is allowed to stand. A perfectly clear and homogeneous mixture of pure oil and vinegar free from water then separates.

"forming alayerlioating upon the impure saline aqueous solution below, so that the former can be readily decanted either for immediate use or for transport.

It is not necessary to ,take perfectlyjfiure fatty oil in the first instance, as, arrabove.

stated, it becomes freed from impurities during the process.

The proportion between vinegar and fatty oil may be varied according to the use to which it is to be applied. The quantity of salt to be added also varies according tothe percentage of water contained in the mixture.

Having 'thus described my invention, I dis claim the mixture of volatile oils with vinegar; but

What I claim is l The process herein described of obtaininga homogeneous mixture of fatty oil and vinegar free from water and other impurities, consisting in first mixing the oil and vinegar, next adding a salt soluble in water to throw down the water and'ot'her impurities from the oil and vinegar, and afterward separating by decantation the acidulated oil from the impurities and saline liquid thus thrown down, asherein described.

In testimony whereof Ihavesigned my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

nUoo NOER-DLINGER.
